I used the dry food for a short period of time. The cats seemed to like the flavor and I didn't have any complaints beyond Link having a bad physical reaction to it. We switched without even finishing off the last bag because he was reacting so bad. But the other two didn't have any problem with it.
My cats would not touch the pate, it looks good, but my cats are not big fans of pate. They had a shredded chicken that they liked, but i think they have discontinued that one.
